Katie had it yesterday: Kamala Harris might have plagiarized good chunks of her book, Smart on Crime. This goes beyond the recent plagiarism scandals that have rocked elite higher education institutions. It’s one thing not to cite someone else’s work. It’s another when you copy and paste entire sections of Wikipedia, which the vice president is accused of. And I thought Joe Biden lifting Neil Kinnock’s speech during his 1988 campaign was bad. This is even more egregious. The New York Times tried to run interference. It failed. Christopher Rufo, who had the scoop, had the receipts: Kamala’s publisher seems...

On September 27, 2024, Federal District Court Judge Michael T. Liburdi rendered a decision in American Encore v. Adrian Fontes that weaponized algorithms surreptitiously embedded in various state boards of elections official voter registration database, turning them into a tool to block elections that bear the modus operandi of mail-in ballot election fraud from being certified.In his decision, Judge Liburdi referenced a provision in the Elections Procedures Manual (EPM) that Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes, a Democrat, had issued. That provision required the Secretary of State to certify an election by excluding the votes of any county that refused...

From Our Special Correspondent. HEADQUARTERS, ARMY OF THE JAMES, Wednesday Evening, Oct. 12, 1864. There is a fair prospect, as I write, that Gen. BUTLER will be forced to make retaliation upon the rebels for the way in which they are alleged to be treating our colored soldiers who were captured in our advance on the 29th ult. From deserters who came into camp this morning, Gen. BUTLER learned that a large number of the negro troops had lately been brought from the prisons at Richmond, and put to labor on the various fortifications in front of us. Justly indignant...

Forget the stylishly dressed wannabe president’s hot air photo op about protecting the U.S. border from the illegal invasion. She may have impressed the know-nothing reporters. but the people on the front lines protecting our borders—the border patrol personnel—aren’t fooled. They know who really cares about protecting our country from this totally illegal invasion and—oh, what not a surprise—it isn’t the current vice president, Kamala Harris who has done nothing but incentivize illegal crossings for the past four years. Publicly stating who really appreciates the valor of the border patrol agents protecting the U.S., the National Border Patrol Council, the...

Betting markets are lining up to show former President Donald Trump with a winning lead over Kamala Harris in the 2024 race for the White House. The Republican currently has a -145 line on BetOnline, compared to Harris’s +125. A negative line means that bookmakers believe the odds favor that person to win, the Independent notes. Other sites show a similar shift to Trump over his Democratic rival with 20 days to go until polling. Fox News reports after favoring Harris for two straight months, traders on PredictIt have now flipped for Trump, mirroring other betting markets that show the...

Three points you might be missing: 1. Project 2025 is a winner. 2. J.D. Vance will be the second-greatest vice president. 3. Jill Biden is running the country. First things first. Democrats have made Project 2025, a policy paper of recommendations put out every four years by the Heritage Foundation, into a bogeyman. But the meat of Project 2025 is a feast for President Donald Trump to devour upon taking office on Jan. 20. The think tank titled it “Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise.” Most of it is a reflection of Trump’s Make America Great Again agenda, and indeed...

“Transphobia is child abuse,” Alex Roque, who runs the Ali Forney Center for homeless LGBTQ youth in New York City, asserted on a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) webinar last fall. In less than three minutes, he cast a vision for completely transforming child protective systems nationwide. Family rejection of a child’s gender identity cannot be dismissed as a personal view, he argued. Non-affirmation must be treated as abuse. “If they were denying them food or denying them access to school or denying other things, there would be headlines,” Roque continued. “There would be prosecution.” Among gender...

Description: While most Pentecostals are orthodox, there is a segment within this movement of “Oneness” or “Jesus-Only” Pentecostals who are not. This movement denies the Trinity, arguing instead that Jesus is himself the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Many also hold that a person’s sins are not forgiven unless they’re baptized “in Jesus’ name” (not “in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit”). Many also believe that a person cannot be saved unless they “speak in tongues” and that a person must abide by certain strict holiness “standards” to be saved. In Oneness Pentecostals and the Trinity, Dr....

It's incredible how quickly things can change in politics. In August, Vice President Kamala Harris was riding a surge of manufactured "joy," backed by a mountain of positive press and an avalanche of donor cash. Spilling into early September, the polling landscape was still pretty friendly to her, and she was on the verge of building an air of inevitability. Others warned, though, that the sugar high would soon fade. Harris' fortunes have completely reversed in states like Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. At the same time, the national polling has tightened to the point where the Republican electoral college advantage could...

Have you seen any economic news coming out of Cuba recently? With barely a couple of exceptions, if you read the U.S. Corporate Media, likely you have not. Searching for the most recent articles on Cuba’s economy from mainstream sources just now, I find nothing in the Washington Post about Cuba’s economy since May 2022; nothing from the New York Times since a piece in April rehashing the usual litany of Cuba’s long-known economic failures; silence at CBS since a piece in April quoting a Cuban official as “blam[ing] the U.S. for exodus of migrants, economic issues”; nothing from CNN...

One of the worst mass casualty strikes on Israel in a year of war came not from dozens of Iranian ballistic missiles nor the repeated barrages of rocket fire launched by Hamas and Hezbollah. Instead, it was a single drone. The unmanned aerial vehicle, laden with explosives, evaded Israel’s multilayered air-defense system and slammed into a mess hall at a military training camp deep inside Israel, killing four soldiers and wounding dozens. It is the latest achievement for Hezbollah’s drone fleet and has shined a light on Israel’s struggle over the past year of war to knock down unmanned aircraft...

Russia said on Tuesday that a treaty it signed with North Korea earlier this year provides for "strategic cooperation" in all areas, but declined to be drawn on how a mutual defence clause in the agreement could be put into practice. Russian President Vladimir Putin signed the treaty with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un when he visited Pyongyang in June, and said it included a mutual assistance clause under which each side agreed to help the other repel external aggression. Asked if this meant that Russia could be drawn into backing Pyongyang in a conflict on the Korean peninsula...

A new imaging method has uncovered modern alterations on Iron Age Iranian bronze swords, showing they were tampered with to boost their value in the illicit antiquities market. This discovery, using neutron tomography, highlights the challenge of detecting forgeries in ancient metalworking artifacts, essential for understanding early metallurgical innovation. Credit: Cranfield University Modern tampering on Iron Age Iranian swords was revealed using neutron tomography, complicating efforts to study ancient metalworking techniques. For the first time, an imaging technique has been applied to study Iron Age bronze swords from Iran, uncovering significant modern modifications that prove the weapons that the weapons...

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) signed another law Monday, claiming to be taking action against gas prices but without lowering taxes, removing the state’s onerous “cap-and-trade” system, or easing regulations on refineries. Those are the factors that the industry, and independent experts, say are the main contributors to the fact that the Golden State pays an average price of $4.677 per gallon, the highest in the nation, well above the average of $3.203. Instead, Newsom has again blamed the oil and gas industry, as in previous years. The new law, which he pushed through in a special legislative session, requires...
